Even if you don’t have the time to volunteer, if you happen to be visiting one of those cities in the near future, you may want to consider dropping off some canned foods, clothes, or other needed items at the Astrodome at Reliant Park in Houston or the Alamodome in San Antonio. Both of these arenas are serving as shelters and have “drop areas” to receive donations.
In addition to Houston and San Antonio, the Central Texas relief effort is underway and small towns across East, South, Southeast and Central Texas are hosting evacuees and enrolling children in their schools.
If you aren’t able to make it to Texas or any of the affected states to volunteer or deliver donations, you can always pledge donations to the Red Cross, Salvation Army, or any number of other relief organizations. There are plenty of ways to help and, right now, there are plenty of people who need it.
